Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1PM5PP2PP3_Moderate

The NM_006158.5(NEFL):c.270G>C(p.Glu90Asp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,611,986 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E90K) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

NEFL (HGNC:7739): (neurofilament light chain) Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and they functionally maintain the neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the light chain neurofilament protein. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease types 1F (CMT1F) and 2E (CMT2E), disorders of the peripheral nervous system that are characterized by distinct neuropathies. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome Y. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_006158.5

PM5

Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr8-24956248-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 66690.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 19 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 5 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 0.63774 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2B5, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2E, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1F.

PP3

MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.846
